Here's the most direct way your team can impact FIRST's visibility in the capital. It continues to be a prime opportunity for teams to contact their representatives so they vote favorably on topics relevant to FRC teams, STEM and Eduacation. When I was a student, renewing No Child Left Behind was one of the big topics. Other mentors to the team would gladly enlighten you on our agenda this year.
